NY: Breaking the $100,000 Barrier

The New York State Board of Elections has posted new contribution limits to be effective in July 2011 for the 2014 gubernatorial cycle.   As is well known, New York’s contribution limits are distinctively high and that tradition continues.  For example, the new general election limit for statewide candidates will be $41, 100, and political party committees may now receive up to $102, 300 per calendar year to use for candidate-related expenditures.
